C  C  Am  F 

Verse: 
              C                           C 
You could've loved me, but I did it all wrong 
           Am                               G 
Running around, taking my time, taking too long 
            F                       G 
You were an anchor, I was wild and free 
                  F        F 
But you could've loved me 

Verse: 
                   C                    C 
Now it's crazy to see you wearing that ring 
                  Am 
We could've been young and dumb and wreckless 
              G  
Could've been everything 
              F 
You had your reasons 
      G 
I had my dreams 
                  F        F 
But you could've loved me 


 F         Dm 
Sometimes love falls in your hands 
           G 
Sometimes love has other plans 
           C                                  F 
Sometimes good good things just get away from us 
       Dm                        G 
I'd be lying if I said I didn't have any regrets 
        C             G              F 
I just know it has to be this way because 
                        Dm   F 
I'm still exactly who I was 


Verse: 
                  C 
But you could've loved me 
                     C 
If it happened just right 
        Am 
But we rise and we fall and we can't win them all 
       G 
Cause that's just life 
                    F                     G 
It ain't like the stories you see in the movies 
                  F        F 
But you could've loved me
